Definition of CPM by G2

“Corporate performance management (CPM) software defines and manages the strategies that large companies need to monitor the performance of their business activities. CPM software is used to create and implement methodologies and processes, allowing corporations to track key performance indicators (KPIs) relative to corporate business objectives. CPM systems consolidate multiple types of business information (financial, operational, sales, etc.) across all the departments of a corporation.”
